Magical Place - Kyrielle Sonnet

by Gem   Mar 8, 2007


In a magical place far far away
Where fairies, pixies and unicorns play
The mermaids are beneath the sea
They show us how wonderful life can be

Green leprechauns dwell where there's a rainbow
Bright colours creating a beautiful show
The birds peek out from the tops of trees
They show us how wonderful life can be

All flowers are tended with such love and care
Bright sunlight shines on the unicorn's hair
The elves rejoice feeling blissful and free
They show us how wonderful life can be

In a magical place far far away
They show us how wonderful life can be ©

This sonnet consists of 14 lines (three rhyming quatrain stanzas and a non-rhyming couplet).
Just like the traditional, this sonnet also has a repeating line or phrase as a
refrain (usually appearing as the last line of each stanza). French poetry forms have a tendency to link back to the beginning
of the poem, so common practice is to use the first and last line of the first quatrain as the ending
couplet. This would also re-enforce the refrain within the poem. Therefore, a good rhyming scheme
